That's it guys. The older products are obviously hit or miss...I was glad we at least got the Lynch and of course the dual Emmitt/Barry. Congrats to 11Eleven11 on that one. Also the Five Star box with 2 inscription autos along with the Dalton so there was some nice stuff spread around... just not as much as I'd like.

Let me know the opinions on the product list in case we ever want to look at 06-07 again.

Thanks for the break Chris. The Emmitt/Sanders card was beautiful. Hard to believe that beauty has been sitting tucked away in a box for over 5 years. That being said....the older Exquisite scares the hell out of me because of the redemption factor, as you will unfortunately find out with the Colston RC auto.

2011 Five Star is still solid....too bad that seems our only really reliable product right now. At least 2012 Five Star is only a few months away...

I'm good with keeping the older products in knowing there's the possibility of the dreaded redemption. It costs less for 2 cases of '11 five star (on sale) then one case of '11 NT. I can see several options.

1-Stick with 5 Star, adding in older boxes.

2-Double up on the 5 Star.

3-Scale back the break to just one case of 5 Star until other products can step in, adjusting the pricing accordingly.

4-Put the break on hold until there are more products available. Not overly desirable but considering the time of the year we're heading into we could all probably use a little more money for other things.

WOW now thats a card awesome, that old EX is such a risk but things like that make it so worth it I mean when do you see two HOFers like Drew bledsoe AND keyshawn jonhson on one card at the same time . incredible. congrats 11 glad it was you

We break every two months, but in the month we donĺt break we still pay 50% ($57,50 per Contribution team). Therefore we have an extra/bigger budget for the month we break, so Chris can get the best products available!
